Sweet and Clean?: Bodies and Clothes in Early Modern England
North, Susan (Curator of Fashion, 1550-1800, Curator of Fashion, 1550-1800, Victoria and Albert Museum)
How dirty were our ancestors, really? Academic history has persuaded us that everyone in the early modern era thought bathing was unhealthy, so they didn't do it. Sweet and Clean? challenges this view, using a range of fascinating evidence to tell a different story about the washing of bodies and scrubbing of clothes in early modern England.
